The Official #14 Tennessee vs. #18 Oklahoma Game Thread, 7:30 PM ET, ABC

[Baseball25]

Nobody can pass the ball when the Oline lets them through like a sieve.

 

[ashleyyy]

South Carolina

this game is at home with high stakes.

 

[vols 30]

All I want to hear Heup say is we got to make changes

He won't. We will get his standard coach speak press conference.

 

[molsen81]

You want him gone?

Since game 2

 

[Volizona]

You want him gone?

Yes!!!

 

[rocketskates]

I swear I'm not watching them next Saturday

You won’t need to, they aren’t playing.

 

[vavolfan6]

OU definitely doesn't deserve to be in the playoffs. They will lose to Bama or someone ekse that can stop OUs below average offense

 

[C-south]

Get ready to pay that “talent fee” next year. You’re getting you money’s worth.

 

[TN1111]

All I want to hear Heup say is we got to make changes

He won't and that will get him unfortunately. I like him but he's too nice to make staff changes

 

[CPVOL]

This team has a Pruitt vibe to it. It’s hard to describe and even harder to believe I say that.

 

[jeffmcflurry27]

Oklahoma has a kicker. Tennessee doesn’t.

That’s the difference between the inevitable trip to the music city bowl and the playoff.

 

[orangerush]

Starting to play out like his tenure at ucf.

Yep

 

[barney]

also hire a real tight end coach and recruit skill players who don't have bricks for hands

 

[floridavol25]

It wasn’t the D that lost the game tonight

No but when you know they are going to run and you allow their back to run right up the middle to ice the game?!? Unacceptable

 

[Allvols98]

Every season we say that after an inexcusable loss by Heupel.

This is just different. We haven't beat anyone this year. The meltdown will really occur when we get beat in the swamp, again.

 

[VOL931]

Fire banks, inge. Demote Halzle. Hand off playcalling duties to a real offensive coordinator.

I think Hazle does good with QBs. He did way more with JA than anyone thought this game notwithstanding. But he's no OC.

 

[Cartervol]

This team may end up 7-5. They just make too many mistakes. On the field and on the sidelines

 

[camp_steveo]

Glad I didn't shell out $700 for a couple of cheap tickets

 

[Orange931]

Well at least Heup does not have to worry about getting embarrassed in the playoffs

I’ve been saying for a while now that Heup’s assistants are gonna get him fired, but then I started realizing “hey, he’s allowing this crap to continue so it ultimately falls on him as well”. We’ll get to the playoffs once in a while with him, that’s our ceiling.

 

[Switch 625]

And heupel didnt even knock clock dont stop when you go out of bounds until 2 mins lolol. He isnt even prepared much less his players.

Honestly, I think he’s just a very lazy person who just skates by and doesn’t put in the work to get better

 

[BeardedVol]

Another upside is that with this year's coaching carousel, we aren't going to get stuck having to give Huepel a raise and an extension.

 

[patrick]

still not over tho

Heupel does have a lot to clean up tho

its over guy.... im sure you think that Heupel (or wait, you probably call him Hype - lol)......

he is an ok coach....

undisciplined teams year in, year out.....

trash

 

[bpalmer28]

just throw it joey

 

[Carl Pickens]

Fowler is such a dumb

 

[Matt2496]

I don't think Heupel should be fired yet. He should be given the chance to fix his staffing issues and play calling.
